You won't get all the benefits of the whole MixBus package but the improved sonics from dithering, pan tweaks, gain staging & Sat etc. should be largely retained (if I'm correct).

Of course, you shouldn't take my word for it... Peer review please.

In fact the only thing different is the first step, which should really make no difference. As a result you could do either, import or route via Jack. Some have decided they prefer the route method vs exporting and either dither or losing resolution from some DAWs I have been told, though haven't ever looked into it. In all honesty I would probably export and re-import myself, if I didn't just work in Mixbus cause it is easier for my work.

I'm confused... Am I wrong or have you guys just agreed on the fact that Mixbus can be used as a plugin on individual channels in Logic (as an insert) and get the same results?
